I hope that people are smart enough to realize that its William Penn. Billy Penn fits better though.

Was that Rich Kotite at 0:33? Don't worry, he also destroyed the Jets after he destroyed the Eagles.

That song does say it all. It's especially dismal for me since I was born in '83. So I simply do not know what it is like to see a major Philly team win a championship.

Right, it's all Billy Penn's fault. The fact that the Eagles, Sixers, and Flyers have all overpaid for "franchise players" who ended up being no-talent assclowns (T.O., Iverson, Lindros) has nothing to do with it...nothing at all! No knock on the songwriter, I think it's a great song, but the concept of the "curse" is silly. How many years before the Flyers won the Stanley Cup had it been since a Philly team won a championship?

He didn't make this up. According to the "curse," the cities' sports teams' have been cursed ever since Liberty Plaza went up in the 80's. Up until then, unlike NY or Chicago, Philadelphia city ordinances stated that no building could be taller than City Hall, which William Penn stands on. And this was how he took his revenge. However, now that Comcast Tower is almost finished, they have placed a much smaller replica of the statue on top. So hopefully our hopes are improving.

From Wikipedia: The Curse of William Penn is an alleged curse, sometimes used to explain the failure of professional sports teams based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to win championships since the March 1987 construction of the One Liberty Place skyscraper, which exceeded the height of William Penn's statue atop Philadelphia City Hall. Since then, no Philadelphia major sports team (baseball, football, basketball, or hockey) has won a league championship.

That is really weird. Did Ryan just make up this whole "Curse of Billy Penn", or is it for real?
